Question:
What is your honey extraction technique
Option 1: I use an extractor
Option 2: I crush and strain the comb
Option 3: I scrape the cappings and let it drip out
Option 4: I give it to someone else to extract
Option 5: I only do cut comb
Option 6: Other
It will be interesting so see how many people use the different methods of extracting their honey.
If you select other, please describe your technique.
Thanks for participating.
I crush and strain and use an extractor so I clicked other.

Friend is a sideliner, has a big set up. Chain uncapper and about a thirty some odd frame extractor. If not for that up the creek :-D!
Somebody chose "scrape the cappings and let it drip out." How long does THAT take??
I chose other because I do mostly chunk honey. Cut comb with extracted liquid.
I have a Kelly 20 frame extractor, still dont have a automatic uncapper yet, I do prefer extracting and storing supers with drawn comb to get a bigger yield the following year. I am still wanting this setup (http://www.cowenmfg.com/apps/store/default.asp?view=profile&itemid=19255)so much I can taste it, maybe one day ;)
TwT...That looked SWEEET!!! So to speak :lol:
